A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you... Look at every path closely and deliberately, as many times as you think necessay, then ask yourself alone...Does this path have heart? If it does, the path is good and should be followed, if it doesn't it is of no use.

Money has never made man happy, nor will it, there is nothing in its nature to produce happiness. The more of it one has the more one wants.Benjamin FranklinIf you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end; if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin, and in the end, despair.C. S. Lewis

Whilst most of these oldquotes and proverbs have wisdom..most certainly

I notice not *all* of them are necessarily true

'there is nothing in it's nature to produce happiness'

The point was in itself money cannot buy you happiness. It wasn't the money that brought the happiness but the successful operation. The money was simply a necessity to get to that happiness.:)
